Soul & Maka(soma one-shot):The drawings that told everything...

The drawing that said it all

"Finally!!!!" I say with a sigh of relief stretching on my bedroom floor along with all my sketches. I had just recently got finished with a sketch i had been working on for days.It was past midnight. It was quite stressing trying to get the detail right. I had to start over multiple times. It was a picture of a heart torn in half. And inside the torn piece was a ribcage. I know it seems weird but i though it was one of my best sketches.Tomorrow night was the art ShowCase at the academy. I volunteered to present some of my artwork and sketches at the event.

My sketch pad was quite personal, but i didn't think it would hurt to show people my hidden talent. My weapon partner, Soul, who is also my best friend, has NO idea i can draw.Neither did the rest of my friends. I was prepping my sketch pad for tomorrow, when i heard a knock on my bed room door. I quickly sat up." Who is it?" I ask politely. " Its Soul, can i come in?"he says questionably. "Sure." I lay back down, my hands still aching from the constant sketching.I had totally forgot about my
sketches on the floor." Ha Maka, I was wondering what you wanted for din-....." He looked down shocked. " Yeah, s-sorry about the mess i was just finishing up." I say nervously, trying to pick everything up. " Maka.... Did u draw these?" He said amazed picking up the heart i just recently finished. " oh, y-yeah i forgot, I never told you i could draw." I said shyly looking away." I know, they aren't that good."

"Are you kidding? Maka, these are amazing!" He said with a surprised look on his face admiring the heart." Why didn't you tell me you could draw so well?" He said looking at me, still with a surprised expression. " well... I never though I was any good...." I said averting his gaze." Why would you think that? These are so amazing! Are you presenting them in the Show case tomorrow?" He said picking up a picture of a single rose I shaded in gray, with just a little bit of white to highlight its petals." Actually, thats why i pulled them all out. I volunteered to present them their tomorrow night." I said, flustered by his compliments, still averting his gaze. " Do you need any help? I don't mind helping you get everything together?" He asked with one of his famous shark-toothed grins. God, I love that grin!!! Just as much as i love him....

"Really? You'd do that for me?!" I asked happily. "Of course, thats what friends are for." Soul say down on the other side of my room."Ok, what do you need me to do?"

As i was visualizing the order i wanted My sketches to be hung up in, Soul was going through my sketch pad, ripping out any unfinished drawings. Occasionally, I'd take pictures of Soul, and try and draw them. I forgot that i had at least three drawings of soul in my sketch pad. One was when he was wearing his pinstripe suit, another one was when he flashed one of those breathtaking shark tooth grins, and the last one was when he ate the kishen, asuras, soul. The sharked tooth grinned one was kinda personal. Reason being was because i drew some other stuff there as well. Soul and i were watching the anime, Psycho Pass when i looked over at him to find him gazing at one of the drawings."When did you draw this?" He says holding up the sketch pad for me to see.

He was looking at the pinstripe suit one I drew of him!!! Right behind that drawing was the one where he's eating asuras soul, then the super personal one! " o-oh th-that drawing was old!!" I say blushing." I like it. Its cool." He said admiring himself. God, he was so handsome! I hurried myself over to him and try and take it but he quickly moves his hand where i cant reach." H-hey! Give that back!"I say flustered "Is their any more of me in here?"he asks curiously with one of his famous grins. Damn it! He's doing that grin again! " Yes, b-but..." I say losing my words. " Oh really? Well I'm just gonna take a look." He says with a evil grin. He's dong this on purpose. He knows there is some thing I don't want him to see. I start to reach for it but his arms are to long. I kept trying and trying, but it was no use. He's gonna see it.

When I'm distracted by my thinking Soul quickly turns the page and stares. Oh no..... He saw it. The page he was looking at was the drawing of him flashing his shark tooth grin. And around the picture was hearts with arrows in them with S+M inside.And at the top it said"The Boy who Swept Me Off My Feet!!"I could feel the blood creeping its way up to my cheeks causing me to blush a deep red. But i wasn't alone. Soul was blushing just as deep as i was. Could he feel the same way about me?!?! No, this is Soul were talking about. Why would he like a flat-chested bookworm like me. " is this....m-me?" He asked stuttering like i was before. " N-no!! I mean... Yes, b-but.....it was old!" I say blushing deeply." I-i don't feel that way anymore! So theres no need to make fun of me!" I say kinda loud, but also nervous, still averting his gaze. " why would i make fun of the girl that I've loved since the fist time i laid eyes on her?"

He said looking at me puzzled. I turned my gaze back to him with the same look."W-What?" He liked me since the first day we met?!?! OMG i cant believe he feels the same way!! " why didn't you tell me sooner?" I asked, eager to know the truth. "Because, i was to shy. And i always thought you would never feel the same because i wasn't as smart." He says looking down at the drawing." Well it doesn't make much of a difference now, huh?" He said gloomily." What?!No! I lied!! I lied because i thought that if i told you the truth you wouldn't feel the same way!!I think that you are more intelligent than you think. "I say trying to confess my love.I cant believe we've loved each other for so long and didn't realize it. "Really?" He says." Yes. You are smarter than you think, you just don't know it yet,"I tell him. "Honestly, i loved you ever since the first day we met...But i thought you didn't like me because I'm a bookworm with a flat chest..." I said looking down, playing with my fingers. He looked up at me with those beautiful crimson eyes. Ive always adored those eyes. "I don't care about your chest. And I'm glad you love books so much.I love your green eyes and your blonde hair. I even love how you "Maka-Chop" me and Black*Star when weact like idiots....Maka...I love you ."said Soul looking into my emerald eyes with his crimson ones.he said it!!I cant believe he said it!?!" I love you too." I said still blushing deeply. We stood up and he pulled me gently by the waist and kissed me passionately.That was the best first kiss i possibly could have ever gotten. It was soft but firm and pleasant. I loved it so much that i couldn't stop if i wanted to.The guy I've loved basically my whole life just admitted to loving me as well. We stopped after awhile and rested our foreheads on each other. "Soul?" "Yeah babe?" Babe.... I could definitely get used to that." Can u sleep with me tonight? Its just i don't want to be alone without you." I said softly." Of course."I turn of the lights ,and we both climb into my bed and have one last kiss." Goodnight I love you." I said softly. " I love you too." We lie down as Soul spoons me from behind. Luckily, it was dark so he couldn't see me blushing. I couldn't believe that i was with him. After freaking out in my mind about the current events, i eventually drifted off to sleep in Soul's warm and strong arms....
